AMS MCV 400 XL VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This is a 3-axis vertical CNC machining center featuring compact dimensions of 23.62" (X-axis), 17.72" (Y-axis), and 19.69" (Z-axis) travel, making it suitable for precision machining operations on small to medium workpieces. The machine is equipped with a 10.05 horsepower spindle motor capable of reaching 8,000 RPM maximum speed, providing efficient material removal rates across various cutting applications. The spindle utilizes a BT40 taper interface, a standard spindle cone configuration that ensures secure tool holding and compatibility with a wide range of cutting tools and holders. Control is managed through a FANUC Series 0i Mate-MD CNC controller, which offers advanced features including digital servo control, linear and circular interpolation, rapid traverse capabilities, and comprehensive tool compensation functions. This controller supports up to three simultaneously controlled axes and provides flexible programming with DIN 66025 and ISO syntax compatibility. The system includes manual reference position return, backlash compensation for both rapid and cutting feeds, and feedrate override capabilities ranging from 0-254%. The machine incorporates AC servo motors with digital controlled drives on all axes, coupled with precision ball screws and linear motion guides to achieve high repeatability and positioning accuracy. Its compact footprint and moderate power requirements make this CNC machining center ideal for job shops, tool and die work, prototype development, and small-batch production runs requiring precise dimensional tolerances and surface finishes in materials such as aluminum, brass, and steel.
